[IPython-dev] Unable to start Jupityr on Docker using "Quick start" instructions

[Kyle Kelley]

Yup, the maximum number of containers is controlled by the pool size
parameter (and the upper memory limit is the mem-limit param).

That is pretty strange behavior that I can replicate for the right set of
parameters. My hunch is that it's related to the initial heartbeat of the
culling/spawnpool service, as lightly raised in
https://github.com/jupyter/tmpnb/issues/80
